I decided instead of tossing them, I would use them.
I brushed them off.
And decided to paint them.
Decided it was too fussy.
Don't forget to mark your calendars for the annual Magnolia Ridge Antiques and Art Gathering!
See y'all!

Pretty! I have often thought of painting pine cones but haven't yet! I saw some that were each painted a different color just on their flat ends. They were attached to a stick and then put in a vase. It really looked like a vase of zinnias!
ReplyDeleteLove that Krylon Cool Ocean Breeze color. Just proving that pine cones are not limited to fall and winter decorations. Good show Donna.
ReplyDeleteIs anything safe from your paint wielding hands? HA!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday, Donna!

Love the ocean mist on the pinecones! So pretty! That event sounds like one I would love to attend! I'm sure it will be a lot of fun. Hope you have a great week. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the look of them on your table. They add a nice coastal vibe. I can see them used in your booth display too. I used to paint pine cones but realized early on that it is a messy job. Love what you do.
ReplyDeleteIs that show in North Carolina or South Carolina.

The pinecones look pretty painted. Hope you booth does really well!
ReplyDeleteThank for the tip Donna xx
ReplyDeleteI love painted pine cones. They look so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI think these turned out great! Have you thought about using them to display business cards, flash cards, post cards, etc?
ReplyDeleteCute! And free. Best of both worlds. :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, I love that shade. Sometimes we roll the pinecones in peanut butter and birdseed for the birds. My grand daughter loves doing that!
ReplyDeleteHello Donna, I am so glad you shared your blue today. The pine cones took on a new life with the lovely colors you painted them. Especially the blue ones. They make a great statement the way you displayed them. Clever woman! I mean it and...it was quick. Smiling here.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday and thank you for your kind words about Backyard Neighbor.

Isn't it amazing to transform something beautiful and natural into something new and breathlessly beautiful! What an eye you have!
ReplyDeleteO, those are really pretty and perfect for Blue Monday...
ReplyDeleteGreat idea and it is nice when people use things and not throw them away. You did good.
ReplyDeleteI sprayed some heirloom white for winter and loved them. The blue is really cool. Sounds like a fun show! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
